The other day I asked my phone for a measurement conversion while cooking only to be greeted by the new Gemini nonsense. Don't touch my shit!

Then I was driving and tried to play a specific song, but the Assistant couldn't get further than dumping me into YouTube Music and hiding my navigation.

So anyways, I just uninstalled Assistant and after failing to find something else I came to Lemmy and saw this.

Thankfully I’ve been “all out” on Google for some time.

First of all no thanks and second... How do I totally opt out because we must assume those cretins opted us all in. I've opted out one one account. Does that work for everything?

To be fair I think it is happening to Google as much as it is to everyone else, we are running down a hill and are going too fast to stop.
